Starlite Diner Car!!

Something new can be found at Bowden, Alberta and rather neat too!! There is a neat old style diner just past the rest area, made pretty good coffee and a great egg sandwich breakfast. I hope they make it through the winter months because I look forward to stopping there again next year.

I couldn't have had better blue skies for the photos above, and great light to take a couple of photos inside as well. Check it out there next time you go through Bowden, the staff there was great.

This imposing basilica, constructed from 1824 to 1829 and completed in the early 1840’s, was the first significant example of the Gothic Revival style in Canada. Built as a parish church to designs by Irish American architect James O’Donnell, it is an outstanding example of the style’s early Romantic phase, characterized by the application of medieval features such as pointed arches, battlements and pinnacles to a classically influenced, symmetrical form. The use of the Gothic Revival for such an important building heralded the prominence the style would have in Canadian architecture.
